Wed, 11 Jan 2012 19:16:24 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=178817#comment-1505738As a lifelong Jets fan, I have to say I’m sick of Jets fans. The same group of dullards who went out and bought Brett Favre jerseys, always choosing quick fix solutions over building a long term winner.

Rex Ryan went to two AFC Championship games in his first two seasons as head coach. That’s more than Bill Parcells ever did. Rex’s defense carried a bad offense for years.

Meanwhile, the one constant impediment has been Schottenheimer. He was bad with Mangini. He was a coach’s son in San Diego. Rex made the mistake of leaving the offense to an incompetent, and when it finally came back to bite him, he made the right move.

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 18:59:57 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=178817#comment-1505661I wish Schotty well, too. I’m not saying he’ll never be a good OC or HC, just that he couldn’t be either with the Jets. It might be that all the upheaval, certain players, certain coaches or any number of things effected his confidence. I look forward to reading the PFT article titled “How Schotty Got His Groove Back”.

Jets had a winning record with him on the staff and some playoff success which has been hard to come by for this organization. I wish him well.

Something that Ryan seemed clueless about after the game.

A few of the new players have not panned out.

Best chance Jets have to contend next season and beyond is renewed commitment to running game, and improving on defense.

MUST get a stud safety, solid LB and a stud DE.
Rex and Sanchez get 1 more year else bye-bye.

I look forward to seeing the Jets put up 3-12 points against the Dolphins….

With the AFC musical chairs going on, maybe they’ll pick you up as an OC down in Miami..

Let’s ignore the fact that under 6 years of Schottenheimer, the Jets have only had a top 15th ranked offense only once, with 6 different quarterbacks, (Pennington, Favre, Bollinger, Smith, Sanchez and Clemens, and let’s not forget what a great job BS did with Drew Brees in SD, by the way), at least 6 different wide receivers (Cotchery, Edwards, Holmes, Coles, Smith, Stuckey), at least 4 different running backs, (Martin, Jones, Greene and Washington) a plethora of awesome O-Linemen (Mangold, D. Ferguson, Faneca, Moore, ect.) and 2 different head coaches. Before 2010, no Jets QB under Schottenheimer had thrown for a 300 yard game since Pennington did it in the 2006 season (BS’s first season) and that includes the HOF gunslinger Favre. Schottenheimer tanked any chance of a comeback in Pittsburgh, tanked any chance of reviving the 2011 season, tanked any chance of winning the Super Bowl for 6 years, probably tanked Mark Sanchez’s career, and hopefully tanked his own career.

BUT YEAH MAN, IT’S ALL REX’S FAULT, BLAME HIM.

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 15:50:07 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=178817#comment-1504955Can you really blame Shottenheimer for an inconsistant QB, selfish unmotivated receivers, and 2 RBs who only show up for 4 games out of the year each? Cuz if so then force his resignation. But when your key offensive weapons are Mark Sanchez, Plaxico and Santonio, and an old LT and underachieving Shonne Greene, your going to struggle, period. Dont be shocked if Marty gets the tampa job and hires his son.

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 15:49:10 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=178817#comment-1504946Let’s see:

Tannebaum signed Santonio Holmes
Tannebaum waived Jerricho Cotchery
Tannebaum did not to bring in a viable back QB
Tannebaum drafted Vladamir Duccasse
Tannebaum did not resign Damien Woody
Tannebaum did not upgrade Safety
Tannebaum cut Tony Richardson
Tannebaum signed off on Wayne Hunter
Tannebaum drafted Mark Sanchez
Tannebaum did not sign or draft a pass rusher
Tannebaum lets Rex say whatever he wants even though Tannebaum is his boss

Got all that? Now Fire Schottenheimer!!!!!!!!!!

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 15:29:19 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=178817#comment-1504869Exactly how is this a credibility problem for the Jets? Do we think teams that try to suggest they aren’t sure who they’re going to take with their high draft pick, just to create more interest from teams to trade for it, have a credibility problem?

How is this “credibility problem” really going to impact them? Sparano signed right on the dotted line and Haley wants to coach for the team. Is there someone they had their eye on that said fux no?

The Jets need to cut out the bad attitudes on the team before they get better.

Year 1 – Fire Schotty
Year 2 – Replace Sanchize
Year 3 – Fire Rex
Year 4 – Go back to being the irrelevant franchize it has always been.

That’s where the Jests are today. They have become the “Patsies” of the 80’s.

To their credit the Raiders faced the facts and seem to have the big broom out while the Jets are still living in Rex Land pretending that getting rid of everyone but Ryan and Sanchez will solve the problems.
